You might be wondering, “So what the heck is this Monday Poll thing anyway?”
Well, it isn’t much of a poll. It’s more just a constantly evolving (devolving?), somewhat random list of questions I’ve been putting out to readers every Monday morning for the past four years. I’ve always enjoyed reading your answers in the comments, and I hope you enjoy reading mine.

Mood:
A little tired because I haven’t slept well in a couple days (pre-trip jitters), but other than that, I feel great.

Breakfast for dinner: yay or nay?
Yay! Sometimes I get weird cravings for scrambled eggs or french toast , and I just never know when they’re gonna strike.

Can you salsa dance?
Nope, but I can fake it if my partner knows what they’re doing. I went to a salsa club meeting years ago with my girlfriends and ended up dancing with some dude who knew how to do all those turns and lifts. What a blast!

One of your favorite places for a makeup/beauty break?
Sephora and Target are my usual haunts (because they’re both about 5 minutes away).

Have you ever written/composed a piece of music?
Once in high school band, and it was really hard for me. We had to write and then perform our own instrumentals in front of the class.

Mine was on the piano, which I played for years, and I guess I did okay. After hearing the piece, my teacher (who was also very kind) suggested I look into doing movie scores, LOL!

Yeah, okay.

Do you play video games?
Puzzle ones, absolutely, but I’m not a hardcore gamer like a couple of my friends are. I’ve played a lot of Bejeweled at long, boring family functions (seriously, how did people survive those things before smart phones?).

A silly movie you love?Night at the Roxbury! So dumb. But that’s one I can (and have) watched dozens of times. “Roxbury. Roxbury. ROXBURY!” Haha! I’m way too easily amused…

OOH! The The Wedding Singer is also right up there.

If you could wear a t-shirt right now with the phrase of your choice printed on it, what would the phrase be?
“Hold on for one more day!”

(Guess who’s been listening to a lot of Wilson Phillips lately.)

What’s one thing in your makeup bag right now?MAC Studio Finish Concealer in NC42. Love it! I use it to cover dark spots from old blemishes along my chin. Stuff covers everything, and it’s so easy to apply.

Weekly goals:
To pack and get everything ready for the trip by tomorrow, so I won’t be scrambling at the last minute; to squeeze in a couple more runs; to load up on echinacea tea and Emergen-C (I always do it before and while I travel); lavish extra lurvies on Tabs before we leave (he’ll be holding down the fort here with a substitute assistant).

Hello and happy Monday, friend. 🙂 I hope you slept well last night, but if not, well, don’t worry! A little time spent doing something fun — like maybe today’s Monday Poll? — and you’ll be right as rain.

I’m due on July 5th! People told me that my baby bump would become public property, but I didn’t believe it. I feel like someone comes up to touch my stomach several times per week. I do the Mr. Miyagi “wax on, wax off” motion when people’s hands come within inches of me!
We know it’s a girl, but still no name yet. So for now she’s “Lady Baby”

4. One of your favorite places for a makeup/beauty break? Sephora or Ulta. Sephora is usually more fun.

7. A silly movie you love? The Craft. I have loved this movie since I was a teenager! It’s not the greatest movie ever, but it is always fun for me to watch. I think it is the moody high school outcast girl thing that I relate to. 🙂
8. If you could wear a t-shirt right now with the phrase of your choice printed on it, what would the phrase be? Uh….not sure.
9. Whatâ€™s one thing in your makeup bag right now? Boscia green tea blotting papers. I just purchased these a few weeks ago and love them! They are great if you have an oily t-zone and don’t want to powder a dozen times a day!

Workout 3x along with more consistent walks with my pooch.
Go to bed early.

Ooh, I have not heard of the Dailey method, but now I’m curious! I have heard of barre method. I really want to build up my core now that I feel I’m a lot more, uh, better with coordination and balance? I’m still a klutz, but a slightly less-coordinated klutz.

And the bf and I are trying to get a small trip together (probably something closeby and cute like Lake Geneva) since we’re not sure our work schedules will allow us our bigger trip to South Carolina. We’ll see 🙂 I hope you have a great trip yourself!

I haven’t done pilates, but if it’s anything like the barre in ballet, you might have troubles if you have coordination and balance problems. I did ballet for six years and I had a lot of trouble when I went to the barre (I have spastic Cerebral Palsy and my balance is naturally tilted a little off and I occasionally jerked as a kid.) While the barre in ballet is meant to build your core and perfect your poses, you might want to wait and see if you can build up your balance and coordination more before you go to something like a barre method. It’s low impact, but you might find yourself falling more because of the coordination and balance involved using barre (if this is involving ballet.) I do ballet exercise now using chairs as barres and I fall at least once!

1. Mood: content
2. Breakfast for dinner: yay or nay? Yay! I love breakfast food but not for breakfast.

We bought our daughter an expensive, exquisite harp when she was 7 years old. I had to sit next to her for an hour every day for years until she was able to practice independently with progression. The harp is a wonderful instrument to learn how to play since even wrong notes still sound beautiful.

I’m so excited for you, for your trip! I hope you have a blast. It actually snowed here on Saturday night and it’s been cold and rainy since then, so I’m going to live vicariously through your tropical vacation! 🙂

5. Have you ever written/composed a piece of music? We used to have to do that regularly in grade school and play them on our recorders. I’m sure mine were outstanding. HAHA!
6. Do you play video games? Once in a while, in spurts. I went through a Guitar Hero phase but that was quite a while ago. I would like to go through a Halo phase (because of the voicing of Nathan Fillion and some of the Firefly cast) but the Hubs didn’t want to get an Xbox. Did I mention that I tried to pass that off as a Christmas gift idea for him? He was hip to my jive. 🙂

8. If you could wear a t-shirt right now with the phrase of your choice printed on it, what would the phrase be? I’d probably grab one of those great Nike tees that say something like “Cute doesn’t win games” or “I make it look easy”. How about “in it to win it”?

Have a great time in Kauai. It’s my favorite island. It’s absolutely gorgeous. My favorite places are Hanalei Bay and Waimea Canyon. It’s been 10 years (!) since I was there, but I remember it being very laid back and not touristy at all. Hopefully that hasn’t changed.

5. Have you ever written/composed a piece of music?: Yeah, just like you, only once in high school band. We also had to perform it. Ugh, how embarrassing. Never again.

6. Do you play video games?: Not really. I’ll play some Angry Birds, Pokemon, and MarioKart, but that’s as far as my gaming skills go.

7. A silly movie you love?: The Hangover. I know, it’s ridiculous, but I like to look at Bradley Cooper.

Ulta, It’s the only makeup store within 10 miles. Well, there are drugstores, but I mean, where am I going to stock up on all of my Dermalogica, OPI, China Glaze, butterLONDON, and *gasp* Stila? For online shopping, nothing beats Sephora so I can get my Illamasqua fix.

5. Have you ever written/composed a piece of music?
Yes, I did for an English assignment. Never again.

6. Do you play video games?
No. I have the generation before Nintendo DS handheld games and I don’t play it much. I’m incredibly aggressive when I play games and they also are detrimental to my wrists, so I try to avoid them. I have tried arcade DDR, and that game and I don’t mix. I have no impulse control!

1. Mood: A little worried, my six year old is having an allergic reaction to something and is covered in hives. Called the Dr. and he said to use Benedryl. Still, as a Momma, when something is wrong with a kid, then everything in the world just doesn’t sit right.

2. Breakfast for dinner: yay or nay? Yay! I like egg dishes for dinner! And pancakes for dinner is always always a good thing!

3. Can you salsa dance? I’ve never tried! 🙁 But maybe now I’ll look into it! My husband isn’t interested in dancing at all, but I’m pretty sure I can talk him into it!

4. One of your favorite places for a makeup/beauty break? Sephora! And Sally Beauty Supply which is where I buy pretty much all my nail polish, I really like China Glaze polish and I get it there.

5. Have you ever written/composed a piece of music? I used to write song lyrics, but not the accompanying music. I played music forever, but could never quite figure out the writing of it. That might be something to look into also…

6. Do you play video games? No! Back in the day I mastered the original “Super Mario Bros.” but that’s it. I play a couple of games on my phone, but they’re card games and some silly kid games my kids started me on. But nothing that involves a controller and a gaming system!

7. A silly movie you love? “Wayne’s World.” It came out when I was in high school, and I used to drive a Pinto, so whenever I hear the song “Bohemian Rhapsody”, I bang my head and fondly remember doing that in my old car! 🙂

8. If you could wear a t-shirt right now with the phrase of your choice printed on it, what would the phrase be? “Girls rule, boys drool.” It’s my personal motto! LOL!

9. Whatâ€™s one thing in your makeup bag right now? Garnier BB cream! I love that stuff! The other night I was taking it off and I wiped off half my face, and I was shocked at how much better it makes my skin look!

10. Weekly goals: Work out to Tracy Anderson at least five times, keep getting my Frappuccino “skinny” style, get my kid healed up from her hives, keep eating healthy!

Benedryl is actually the best thing you can do for him (or her). The anti-histamines will knock out all of the histamines in his system, which is what is causing his hives. I get hives all of the time (it comes with having hypersensitive skin), so I carry Benedryl in my purse in case of an outbreak.

If he or she is still in pain and he doesn’t have wheat or oat allergies (or Celiac Disease), grind up 1 cup of oats in a blender on the highest setting until it’s dissolvable (take a 1/3 in water and see if it dissovles. If it has a milky cast and silky feel, it’s done). Pour the rest while the warm bath water is running and let him soak in that for 15 to 20 minutes. Pat his skin down with a really really soft towel (the softer, the better. My mom used the softest terry clothes when I had the chicken pox) over rubbing and irritating his hives. Oats contain not only humectants (which are moisturizing) and carbs (which energize our bodies), but contain antioxidant properties that help calm down rashes, hives and allergic reactions. My mom used oats on me all the time to bring down my rashes and hives (which is why I use Aveeno Daily Moisturizing lotion now. It’s primary ingredient is oats!)

1. Mood:
Considering I’m broke, got pulled over, ticketed, am text fighting an ex and stained my new orange shorts today, I think it’s a freakin’ MIRACLE that I’m in a good mood.
2. Breakfast for dinner: yay or nay?
Yay!! I love it when I come home late from work and it’s just so tasty and easy to make. Probably not that good for me.
3. Can you salsa dance?
Frick no! I did a musical last Christmas and we had to do a salsa dance number and even on the show days, I just kinda stumbled through it. Still have no idea why they put me in the front of the group!
4. One of your favorite places for a makeup/beauty break?
The local drugstore, for sure.
5. Have you ever written/composed a piece of music?
Only one good one.
6. Do you play video games?
I’m a video game fiend!! Pokemon, Zelda, everything. I love playing em, especially old school game boy games

1. Mood: Meh.. I hate mondays.
2. Breakfast for dinner: yay or nay? Yay, I do it all the time!
3. Can you salsa dance? No way, I’m a bad dancer!
4. One of your favorite places for a makeup/beauty break? Sephora
5. Have you ever written/composed a piece of music? No, but I used to play piano when I was a kid. I didn’t quit because I wasn’t good at it, I just.. didn’t like it at all.
6. Do you play video games? Nop
7. A silly movie you love? Young Adult
8. If you could wear a t-shirt right now with the phrase of your choice printed on it, what would the phrase be? Next mood swing: 6 minutes.
